                departments. All the year  round the organization has succeeded in converging different social welfare  activities and economic action programme with the objective to bring about a  positive change in the minds of the people as well as in the lives of the  people. 
                   
                  It is mentionable that youths, women and children from  different segments of the population joined the activities of the organization  spontaneously and whole heartedly. The organization attempted to implement  different social schemes as well as some economic activities through awareness  generation, camps, dissemination of education, training in different  traditional vocational trades and some financial linkages.
